Vinoteca La Sacrestia

Vinoteca La Sacrestia is a bed and breakfast with restaurant in the historic centre of Alba, on Piazza Rossetti, just a few metres from the town’s Cathedral.

The property offers two room types, both equipped with air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, minibar and private bathroom with toiletries and hairdryer: a larger one with a sitting area and city view, and another designed for families of up to four people. WiFi is free throughout, and guests arriving by car can rely on private on-site parking, convenient for those visiting the Langhe.

On the ground floor, the in-house restaurant serves traditional Piedmontese dishes and Italian specialities, while the bar is ideal for an aperitif before heading out to explore the town centre streets. The location, right next to the main square, is one of the features most appreciated by guests, who consider it perfect for both a romantic weekend and a food-and-wine holiday among the surrounding hills.
